Hi all ive just bought a second hand miller 240 amp single phase mig welder . Its about 15 years old and i got it home pluged it in and when i pulled the trigger nothing happened but the welder made a thudding sound and dimmed all the lights in the house and after about the 4th time of doing this there was a hell of a blue flash/spark come from somewere inside the welder Then after that it seemed to start working in a fashion but its like welding with 80 amp ebay special and not a 240 amp miller its just got no power and cant get it to weld nice at all .
Ive never really messed about with the internal workings of a mig so dont really know what im looking at but was wondering is there anyone that is in the north wales/chester area that services/fixes mig welders or are there any basic checks i can do myself . Thanks in advance Matt
